Indiegogo Campaign Has Begun!

Second times a charm. The epic QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War story concludes with Part 3, and we require funds to publish a print volume. To sweeten the pot a bit, a 3 pack of the print and PDF copies of all three parts of the This Means War story is a new perk. The stickers and magnet add-ons for the Project for a Free Cosmos concept (explained in the story) are available. And one final incentive for the first 20 who get there first, an add-on for a Free Cosmos Project coaster (1 per perk).

The campaign starts today, Sunday, November 10th, and will conclude in 31 days.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Sort of wide panel. We the Stealth Ship being “absorbed” through the skin. In this shot, the ship is laying flat on the airskin surface, and is also enveloped by the airskin, as if encased in a clear-plastic cocoon.

Caption: The Little Prince's state-of-the-art air skin can absorb objects without losing atmosphere.

Caption (2): When the ship contacts the airskin, it envelopes the craft, then recedes on the atmosphere side to release it.

Panel 2
Close-up of Drenkowski in the Stealth Ship flight cabin.

Drenkowski: Now let's see how this baby handles in atmo.

Panel 3
Full-width panel. Drenkowski takes the Stealth Ship through a barrel-roll (speed lines indicating the maneuver, left-to-rightward in the panel). We can see Damocles many kilometers away, in the upper distance (we're looking at a somewhat upward angle but not straight up).

Drenkowski: Suh-weet!

Drenkowski (2): Commander Drenkowski to aerodrome, ETA 1 – ah – make that 2 centimes.
